Default Wreck number 12th, ITR from Switzerland *again*

This is my 12th ITR, the 6th from Swiss I bought. It looks like I will wreck it, cause the driver side frame is realy bad hurt and for recovering I have to pull out the engine and weld a new frame onto it ...my Bodyshop guy will look at it today, but I doubt it will be worth it.

How was the day?
I woke up at 0230 am and at 3am I started the einge of the pulling device after 500meter driving an girl friend of mine had an accident and was in the field besides the road. The strret full of snow, my rwd pulling vehicle and no weight on the rear axle....but I managed to pull her out after 10 minutes and a big kiss I moved on ....... I had 120km snow road till Salzburg......a speed of 90kmh maximum was possible hehehe. A total of 6 hours one way, so 12 hours till I was back (only driving time w/o breakes)












PS: The windows did not close, I have no clue why, the fuse was okay. I did not want to loose any more time, so I used some plastic to cover the window.......

My girlfriends fathers work associates owned an ITR CW infact, both died. This was around Zurich about a month ago. :-/ I know switzerland has loads of ITRs but the timing just seems wierd. They were driving on a country road, they swirved away from the fox hit the barrier face on and went down the side of the hill....

looks bad structural wise sad end to a beautiful car. however, it does seem from the pics that many good parts will come out of the wreck, especially the interior and some exterior pieces.

it seems as though there are some scary accidents in ITRs over there because of the number of ITRs you've been getting. most have been repairable so that's a benefit to you. regardless, i think europe needs to hurry and get out of the ricer stage.
